India vs Netherlands T20 Prediction & Betting Tips
India had a fantastic start to their T20 World Cup campaign after they pulled off an incredible victory over arch-rivals Pakistan with the final ball of the match. India are now full of confidence and will use that winning momentum during their next T20 World Cup match.
India is set to play the Netherlands on October 27 at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). The weather looks reasonably good in Sydney for October 27 as there is a 40 percent chance of rain most likely in the afternoon but things should be good during the evening when the match starts.
Let’s now take a look at the India vs Netherlands betting tips, online cricket betting sites, odds, and much more.

India are huge favorites to win this match because they are better than the Netherlands in every department. What India must not do is get complacent and think they will have an easy game as the Netherlands have shown in their recent game against Sri Lanka that they can play competitive cricket when their top players perform.
The Netherlands will not go into this game with any pressure as no one expects them to win, which makes them dangerous. India on the other hand will want to win this game convincingly so that it boosts their net run rate for the tournament.
Our experts predict that the powerful Indian batting line-up of Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, and SK Yadav will take the game away from the Netherlands as none of the Dutch bowlers have anything in their arsenal that will pose a threat to the Indian batting line-up.
The Netherlands will find it difficult to face the variety found in India’s attack with the swing of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, the left-arm pace of Arshdeep Singh, and the off-spin of R Ashwin.
We expect India to win this game in style and boost their net run rate.
India vs Netherlands T20 Betting Options
The most popular bet for this T20 match will be based on the outright winner. We pick India because we believe they will stick with the same squad that won against Pakistan.
This is a great opportunity for the likes of Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul to get some runs at the top of the order and regain their confidence after failing against Pakistan. We expect the Netherlands batting line-up to struggle against the Indian spinners as the SCG is the most conducive pitch to spin bowling in Australia.
The Netherlands do not have any players that have the X factor in our opinion to win the game on their own and surprise India.
Apart from the outright winner, you can also bet on a number of popular side bets which we have listed below.
India vs Netherlands T20 Top Batsman Betting
The SCG is one of the smaller grounds in Australia and we expect a run fest, especially if India gets to bat first. We don’t expect the Dutch bowlers to pose any significant threat to the Indian batting order and hence we could see a total of close to 200 if India bats first or a quick chase if India bats second.
Virat Kohli set the MCG on fire with a magnificent inning that helped India win. Kohli will look to carry that form against the Netherlands. Rohit Sharma is going to be the key player to watch out for as the captain will look to show why he is one of the most dangerous players in T20 cricket.
SK Yadav looked good in his brief stay at the crease against Pakistan and could get fast runs against the Netherlands with his aggressive batting style.
We are not going to feature any of the Dutch batsmen on our list as we expect this game to be a rather one-sided contest and don’t expect any of the Dutch batsmen to finish as the top run scorer.
Recommended Betting Tip: Rohit Sharma
INDia vs Netherlands T20 Top Bowler Betting
Even though the Netherlands lost their last game against Sri Lanka, the Dutch bowlers had a good game as a bowling unit. If the Netherlands is to pose any threat to India, they will need their bowlers to do a good job once again.
Hardik Pandya and Arshdeep Singh were the picks of the bowlers for India against Pakistan. They will once again be a big threat for the Netherlands with the left-armer Arshdeep Singh swinging the ball at the top of the order and all-rounder Hardik Pandya looking to use his pace and bounce to pick up quick wickets.
We think the biggest threat for the Netherlands will be the wily off-spinner R Ashwin. India should watch out for Paul van Meekeren as he has the knack for breaking partnerships and taking key wickets.
Recommended Betting Tip: R Ashwin
INDia vs Netherlands Player of the Match Betting
We expect India to win this match comfortably irrespective of whether they bat or bowl first. This is why all three players on our potential player of the match are from the Indian team.
Rohit Sharma is going to be dangerous as we don’t think he will have any problems dealing with the Dutch pace attack.
Sharma can score quick runs at the top of the order and when he gets going, he is hard to stop. R Ashwin should get wickets with his off-spin as the Dutch batsmen are not used to playing high-quality spin bowling.
The X factor will be Hardik Pandya as he has shown in the past that he can win the game with both bat and ball.
Recommended Betting Tip: Rohit Sharma
INDia vs Netherlands T20 Squad
We don’t expect India to make any changes to their playing XI as they will want to stick with a winning combination. The only reason they could make a change is if they feel the need to rest Hardik Pandya who was limping at the crease for a little while against Pakistan.
Probable India XI vs Netherlands
Rohit Sharma (Captain), KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Deepak Hooda, R. Ashwin, Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammad Shami.
Probable Netherlands XI vs India
The Netherlands are likely to retain the same squad that played against Sri Lanka as their key players are fit and they are expected to play at full strength. Max O’Dowd is a key player for them at the top of the order along with Colin Ackerman.
Vikramjit Singh, Scott Edwards (C), Stephan Myburgh, Max O’Dowd, Tom Cooper, Colin Ackerman, Bas de Leede, Teja Nidamanuru, Tim Pringle, Roelof van der Merwe, Timm van der Gugten, Logan van Beek, Shariz Ahmad, Fred Klaassen, Brandon Glover and Paul van Meekeren.
